Chicago (Booth) 2013 - Calling All Applicants

To all the accepted candidates and future Boothies ---- CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!! Go and get yourself drunk today .... you deserve it!!!

And to all my friends still waiting ..... please don't lose hope. Many of you WILL get a WL and not an outright ding ..... and that's not THAT bad, if it makes you feel any better. I know many of my classmates here at Booth who were WL'ed in the first round and then came back with a bang in rd2 to receive an admit!! Hang in there!

I see you guys were in good hands with Cheets giving u company here. She is an absolutely amazing lady with the most insightful and helpful comments!!!! I cannot stress enough on all the points she has made so far .... from RWs to Orientation to Concentrations etc .... correct to the 'T'.

If there are any more questions .... shoot! Happy to help!

As one of the Admit Weekend Captains, I am really looking forward to meeting some of you then! Go BOOTH!!!!!

Is this it?

I interviewed and did not hear anything today. Does that mean a ding?

Not necessarily. could mean you've been waitlisted

I guess ding it is for me....located in Asia.....no call yesterday

Today was a mental beat down - went in wishing for an admit, hoping to be 100% done with applications and stress free. Left more stressed than before, wishing to be on a wait list.

However, a sincere congrats to all the people who made it through. The chat room was pretty entertaining at least.

Hang in there hookemhorns612. We are rooting for you!

Totally! I can tell by your GMAT score progression alone that you are a fighter.

I was really really hoping for a call. As a re-applicant, it has been an incredibly long and painful journey. I know, I must have done something right to be interviewed both times, but guess, it was not enough.

I'm right there with you...same situation as me. now the best I can hope for is a WL

I may be pushing it to the limit but isnt it possible to receive an admit even though one did not receive a call? I think it happened last year with one guy in africa who applied to stanford.

It happened to my friend at Booth 2 years back.

So still hoping for a last minute miracle, knowing that the odds are miniscule.

Hey all - I got the call yesterday afternoon. In w/$$. Thrilled!

Congratulations MBAGoTime and all who received an invite yesterday!

Its been a long and arduous journey so far but hoping for a glimmer of hope by being Wait Listed! Best of luck to us all today!

So will the waitlists and dings go out by 9am cst?

Yes, but don't think our status will change before 9 CST.

Just 1 hour to go for that.. we waited the whole day yesterday; we can wait another hour

Statuses are up. Waitlisted.
